Stimulate Your Child’s Development With Play

With the game you can have an active role in controlling your child’s psychomotor skills and offer him tools that can be used to make his new skills his own.

Stimulate your baby’s development with these fun games. These activities will allow you to develop sight, hearing, coordination, memory and your brain development in general.

Avoid obstacles

Turn to the side, sit down when needed, back down… In order for your child to master his movements, place many obstacles on the floor where you will place him.

Obviously, the obstacles must be delicate and must not involve any kind of danger for him. Opt for:

– Medium-sized cardboard boxes that he can go around.

– Armchairs and tables to which it can pass under.

– Rolled up blankets and pillows that it can pass over.

All the items you choose must be made of canvas, cardboard, or plastic.

In order for the baby to crawl avoiding these elements, you need to arrange the toys in certain places, or place yourself in each of the corners where you want him to go and invite him to come towards you.

You will see how happy he will be every time he reaches his goal.

The game of the rattle

Maracas in some regions of the world, rattle in others. Whatever the word, it is important to stimulate your child’s development by playing this particular instrument.

The sound produced by the rattle develops the baby’s hearing. The colors of the material stimulate the eyes.

When the baby grasps the rattle, he activates his sense of touch and, by moving it to make it sound, his motor skills.

Whenever your child discovers that when he moves the toy it sounds, he will also coordinate all his senses.

The game of hide and seek

The game of hide and seek for babies is very different from hide and seek for older children.

Here it is always up to the child to search in a rather narrow range of action.

• To play hide and seek with your little one, have him sit on the carpet in front of you.
• Place several cushions around and look for a toy that he likes.
• Show him the toy well and immediately place it under one of the pillows.
• Pretend to be amazed, open your eyes and say:

• Hey! He hid, where is the toy?

If your child does not look for the toy under the pillow where it is, raise it a little and let him see a part of the toy so that he knows it is there and goes to get it. When he finds it, reward him with a: very good!

Then take the item and place it under another pillow.

Hiding and finding things will be fun and useful.

As your child learns to walk, you can make small changes. Replace cushions with any corner of the house: behind doors, under beds… and the toy with any member of the family, including you.

Do what the songs say

Doing what the songs say can be a lot of fun for your child, it can help them control new movements and learn the meaning of words.

Sing while, first of all, perform the movements. So your child will observe you. Then, help him follow the directions to the beat of the music.

This game will allow him to identify sounds and speak better. is

The buildings

Making constructions both with toys designed for this purpose and with objects to mount on each other is a lot of fun and your child will love it.

In fact, even if you don’t stimulate him, he will gradually notice that he likes to pile up toys and build towers with them.

Since this is a good way to stimulate his psychomotor skills, we invite you to take advantage of this interest and join in the fun.

Build tall towers and let it destroy them from time to time. Seeing them fall will arouse many smiles.
